| Reverse description | The reverse displays an Arabic legend in the central field, arranged in two or more lines and identifying the ruler and mint authority, typical of Durrani-era Afghan copper fulus. A prominent row of raised pellets or beads forms a decorative border band across the upper portion of the field, separating the legend from additional inscriptions below. The script is rendered in a bold, cursive Naskh style consistent with Kabul mint dies of the 1250s AH era. The overall design is characteristic of the hammered coinage of Shah Shuja al-Mulk. |
